I became a master of alchemy by picking up trash

Ye Qingting was just thinking about it when a scream interrupted his thoughts.

"Oh shit—!"

Cui Tianxiao's face was twisted in pain, and he clenched his left hand tightly, with blood dripping from the clenched fingers.

"what happened?"

"Something bit me!"

Everyone gathered around. Ye Qingting opened Cui Tianxiao's hand and saw a half-inch long wound on his palm, as if cut by a sharp blade. The cut was flat and deep, with the tendons exposed.

Blood dripped into the lake, and the calm water suddenly boiled like a pot.

Qi Ming pointed to the lake and exclaimed: "Yes, it's a fish! Look, it's a transparent fish!"

After his reminder, everyone discovered that there were many flat fish as long as thumbs in the water. They were attracted by the smell of blood and ran rampant in the waters.

The whole body of the small fish is transparent, and its eyes, bones, and internal organs are silver. You need to distinguish carefully to find them in the sparkling water.

There were many transparent fish greedily devouring the red fierce ant blood and residue washed away by the disloyal team.

When encountering slightly larger pieces, the transparent fish swims quickly around the pieces, using its sharp dorsal fin like a blade to chop the pieces into pieces until it is cut into pieces suitable for its consumption.The thing that cut Cui Tianxiao's palm just now was probably the fin of the fish swimming at high speed.

Li Xing frowned, a little blood and residue could attract so many transparent fish, so how dense is the density of transparent fish in the entire Yaochi?

Although she is not a pessimist, her experiences since the start of the competition have forced her to prepare for the worst.

The camera transmitted the transparent fish's appearance back to the live broadcast. The host saw that the small fish was only an inch long, so he didn't take it seriously.

"This little fish is completely transparent and doesn't look threatening."

Lin Zhi'an: "On the contrary, they are more dangerous than sky-level water beasts."

The host was shocked: "Huh? This..."

"This kind of fish has a flat body and is as sharp as a razor blade. They appear in groups. Wherever they pass, water animals turn into white bones, so they are also called bone scrapers."

The host was shocked: "So, it turns out this is the most dangerous bone scraper among freshwater beasts!"

Oh my God, the pictures in the Encyclopedia of Aquatic Star Beasts are so distorted. They are enlarged without indicating the multiple. So for so many years, Zhou Jun has always thought that the bone scraper is a giant fish that can swallow people in one bite.

After figuring out the origin of the transparent fish, the host was also worried: "This way, the possibility of the two teams swimming to the island is gone."

Lin Zhian adjusted his glasses and stared at the live broadcast in silence.Bone scrapers have appeared. This game is more difficult than regular army combat. I really don’t know if the competition team has conducted on-site inspections in advance.

At this time, in the southwest of Yaochi, Chen Qi was pacing back and forth on the shore with his hands behind his back, feeling irritable.

There were many scratches on his body, like knife cuts. Although the bleeding had stopped, the blood stains on the combat uniform were shocking. "I really can't understand how such a small fish, swimming in a group, can be as powerful as Chu Yunyi's Tianfeng Killing Formation? If I swam slower just now, I have already drank Meng Po soup! "

The Desert Boat Team was the first team to arrive at Yaochi. The Shangguan brothers and sisters were not very good at using wind to create formations, so the team decided to swim across the lake.

In order to avoid being attacked by large water beasts in the lake, Bai Ling asked Chen Qi, the strongest and fastest, to be the vanguard. He would first swim a certain distance to conduct reconnaissance. If there was no danger, the others would follow.It was precisely because of this decision that the Desert Ship Team was not completely wiped out.

Chen Qi swam less than 100 meters when a group of transparent small fish surrounded him and swam rapidly around his body. Their sharp dorsal fins cut through Chen Qi's skin like blades.

The blood quickly turned the lake red, and the little fish that tasted the blood became more and more crazily.Chen Qi quickly wrapped himself with earth elemental spirit, but the dorsal fins of these small fishes could even cut through the petrified layer formed by elemental power.Chen Qi was so shocked that he swam back to the shore with all his strength. When he landed, his whole body was covered in blood.

Chen Qi told his teammates about being attacked by a shoal of transparent fish, and Bai Ling immediately deduced that this small fish was the infamous "bone scraper."

There is such a star beast in the lake, and the risk of swimming across the lake is too high.

They had been here for several hours and had no idea how to deal with the bone scraper.The island in the middle of the lake is right in front of you, but you can’t get up there, so why don’t you worry!
Suddenly, Bai Ling's eyes lit up and she asked, "Chen Qi, take out the long-tusker you caught this morning."

Chen Qi opened the space button, and a huge star beast that looked like a wild boar appeared on the ground.The meat on Longtusk's shoulders and rear buttocks was roasted and eaten by everyone, but it was still intact.

"We peeled off the skin of the tusker and tied it into a raft!"

Chen Qi shook his head: "No, if it smells like meat, those ghosts will come around."

Bai Ling was very confident in her idea, and patiently explained: "Bleach the hair and minced meat on the leather, and then wash it with my special potion, which can hide the smell of long-toothed dogs to the greatest extent. Linyuan and Xian The fish then wraps the raft with the talisman array, double insurance."

"If that doesn't hide the bone scrapers, we'll throw tusked bits of meat into the water to lure them away."

Everyone thought about it and felt that this method was indeed feasible. After all, the distance of twenty kilometers was not too far, so the entire Yaochi would not be filled with bone scrapers.So the Desert Boat Team began to make rafts according to Bai Ling's ideas.

Southeast of Yaochi, Ye Qingting and Song Shurun ​​were also discussing ways to land on the island.

Song Shurun ​​believes that the transparent fish has a small snout and no teeth, so it is a scavenger.As long as they don't get caught in any debris that could cause the transparent fish to mistake them for food, they won't be attacked.

But Ye Qingting holds a different view. If the transparent fish is really a scavenger, why did it evolve a sharp dorsal fin?In his opinion, transparent fish must be predators and will only scavenge when food is scarce.

Ye Qingting rejected the suggestion of swimming across the lake, but he couldn't think of a better way.The two had no choice but to find Li Xing again.

"Axing, what do you think we should do?"

Li Xing is also in a dilemma. The safest way is of course to fly over.

Of the eight of them, only half have mastered the flying skill. No matter how the remaining people are divided, at least two will be left behind.

To say the least, even if they could barely bring everyone along, the distance of twenty kilometers was too far, and there was no place to stay along the way.

When they can no longer fly and fall into deep water, there may be water animals more dangerous than transparent fish waiting for them.

Damn it, if the competition allowed the use of aircraft, would she still need to think hard here?

Um, aircraft?
Wait, she seems to have an idea.
